It was atiku hope to trap obi inside adc. Just like he trapped Wike and rendered him mad 😂

Obi repeatedly said there should be direct primary. Atiku did not have the numbers for that. He ran to Ibadan to recruit makinde, insisting on selection.

Why is atiku running away from direct primaries ? He owns adc ? Did Buhari build apc ? Did obj build pdp ? Atiku is not statesman. His last outing will end in disgrace

For all the Apc sycophants talking about obi. You do this out of frustration. Obi will run. !!!!!
Aminda, is this true?

This person doesn't even know ADC had plans for direct primaries and it was Obi who doesn't want that, and also doesn't have the numbers

The chameleon has moved again. Before the elation in 2027, I’m sure he will move again.

He wants a party that will make him candidate without primary election.

Such a sore loser.

I second this too. It seems these people do not know simple BODMAS at all. Stay united and defeat the president or stay scattered and he wins again. They seem to underestimate how dangerously cunning Tinubu is.

I mean 2023 was an eye-opener, Ah! Everybody cannot be president at once. Come to a gentleman agreement: this one president, you vice, this one Senate President, you go back to the House, you choose any Ministerial slot that you want etc.
This is how Wike retained his power and milked it to the fullest.

I don't know what they're trying to prove that has not been proven in 2023. In all of these though, Kwankwaso will be the biggest winner of the plays his cards right by deputizes Obi. His eyes should be on 2031 and he is primed to be the most formidable Northern candidate.
how do they stay united when you have said now it's about sharing formula

Obi that is deceiving himself as coming to sanitize system will he now open positions for sharing in his govt when supposedly these are criminal structure people.

He claims not to be desperate but he is the one that doesn't work on a party but wants everyone to fall on his lap.

Kwankwaso has said he always contested primaries, even against the giants of buhari and atiku his senior brothers up north

Is there a way he would not be doing that at the least, if he does he wins obi hands down just by sheer northern delegates numbers

He actually benefits by allowing tinubu wind down his 8 years then it eliminates both atiku by age and obi by zone in 2031.

Until obi realizes kwankwaso has more to gain by not working with him the better

Regrettably, like I did in May 2022

I congratulate President Bola Tinubu on his re-election as President of World's most populous black nation.

We will continue to put you on your toes and ensure that democracy will not die. Whilst I congratulate you, I believe that you have sunk this country far low, hopefully you have time to write your name in the history books, I wish you well.
As sad as it may sound. His reelection is certain.

Nigeria politics isn't for a good guy like Peter obi. Good man with a good heart but can't govern a complex country like Nigeria.

If Peter Obi can't build men or get through the murky waters of the primaries and can't even get his previous party fixed when challenges arose, how sure are we that he can handle the complexities of Nigeria?
He wasn't even special as a governor like Amaechi mentioned yesterday. So I wonder why Obidients see him as the messiah. He isn't!!
Becoming the president is just an ambition to him!
He is not doing it for the masses. He's not different from the other politicians we have.

Note that, A Tinubu vs Atiku vs Peter Obi vs Kwankwanso on 2027 ballots will produce the same results like we had in 2023.
Kwankwanso doesn't look ready to deputize Obi going by his press statement yesterday. Na Obidients dey famz am grin




This is getting interesting
Obi is Jagaban's boy, but his blothers are not smart enough to know this.

Without Obi's cooperation, Jagaban won't be in Aso rock today

I hope he knows what he is doing and not just moving upandan because of "what will my supporters say" or because Kwankwaso wants to be his VP (Kwankwaso also has his own agenda)


I personally want him on the ballot, but we shouldn't be making the same mistakes of 2023.
the guy is politically novice.....am his supporters but I've said many times Peter obi is politically novice in playing politics...... He has no business with atiku,... he'll understand that in the long run of things, lastly moving from the ADC is a gud move for the betterment of Nigerians....if atiku truly love the country he should stepdown for the OK movement...but if his not stepping down ...he should test his popularity in ADC.. for two captain cannot control one boat.

But this means the opposition coalition is not longer coalescing. Well, I doubt they ever had a chance against Mr Tinubu though.
..any party peter obi enters into...Tinubu sends his agents to destabilize and destroy the party .. Tinubu does not want Peter Obi in the ballot in 2027

Yeah, His Excellency Peter Obi has very good intentions but I believe he is not matured enough politically to govern Nigeria. He, definitely, does not look before leaping. This is a very bad sign.

He must be very gullible to believe Atiku would hand him the ticket just like that. The truth is that he is scared of primary election. Let us be sincere, is he ready?
He has very good intention, yes but he must be rugged and maintain an active posture in order to rule a country like Nigeria.

For God's sake he doesn't have to be president at one go. He'll most likely have the Vice Presidency had he humbled himself.

When he comes to politics, President Tinubu is arguably the most formidable politician in Nigeria, but disappointly weak in administration. He stoops low to conquer and swallows embarrassment if it'll get him what he wants.

See what happened here when Bukola ignored him and he called him back and greeted him. Can an Atiku, Obi or Kwankwaso stomach such?

Voting for Obi is a waste of votes.

If he was at ADC, yes I won't be saying this but for him to run solo again without structures, it's a NO.

Since Obi is not desperate to be Presiy, VP or senate President, and more interestingly he can't play dirty, he should allow those with structures and dirty hands to save the country.

Obi cannot save a system that is so dirty and corrupt without him been dirty. Nigeria is messed up, they don't like good people and that's why every good leader Nigeria had, has died prematurely.

Obi is a good man and can't fight dirty. People. Nigerian politics don't need good men
He lacks leadership skills and foresight, not this one you're saying

The fact that he moved to ADC that has multiple legal tussles as far back as 2022, then decided to leave based on the same legal issues according to him, shows he's not all that

So, he couldn't build labour and still couldn't do due diligence before moving to a new party. That's not a leader

Can Tinubu now defeat Obi in the South or he will still be relying on Northern votes?
😂😂😂 see question, bikonu who’s is obi in the south, aside from his 5plot of land region, which other state he is going to win if the election takes place today? Pls be sincere with yourself and answer my question? You must be delusional if you think Lagos will be up for grab for him again and the SS governors are all in Apc now and will deliver their region, while in the NC Tinubu will also win and fews states in NW and NE and also getting the constitutionally required 25% in 24 state of the federation……like i said in the previous thread, put you money where your mouth is and place a bet on Atiku if you still believe he will defeat Tinubu and leave cho Cho Cho for sissies grin

Which vision does he have? Someone that doesn't see beyond his nose.

Didn't we warned him about his defection to ADC?

He doesn't have foresight and the political antenna to see what was ahead of him.

Obi's not visionary. He doesn't know what next to happen bcoz he's a shallow minded person and that's why everybody can push him around.

He doesn't have the mind of his own. Very easy to swing around. I don't know what he thought he would get from ADC.

Thank God he lost it.

Obi go Obi come barrack remain

He seems to have a problem with accepting reality. I think he has a lot of bad advisers around him
Him and Atiku are fast becoming the Awolowo and Azikiwe of the 70s. They just can't find common ground on their own
Stop mentioning Pa Awolowo in this kind of contest, ion care about Azikwe..

Pa Awolowo never chased shadows jumping from one party to another like your Obi is doing today..

Pa Awo was never desperate in his entire life to become a president. He never begged any body to step down and support him… This because it was the then people of the old western region that wanted Pa Awo..

Pa Awo has always been more of a regionalism and a secessionist person. He never believed in federalism… Till today, his believe is still valid cuz federalism is not working at all for Nigeria!

Only regionalism can work !

We wish Obi well in his new destination. All we are asking for is for democracy to be let to thrive in the country. Every politician is at liberty to pursue their individual aspirations. The ADC was clear to him from the get-go. He chose to join notwithstanding and is now free to leave. It's a political party, not a cult.

Okay, it's the governors that will now deliver Tinubu, not the people? Noted. Please tell us what party Sanwo-olu and Tinubu was when Obi defeated him in Lagos? What party were the governors of Imo, Ebonyi, Cross Rivers, etc? Why didn't they deliver their states to Tinubu? Lessons!

They can't stay fully united if each of them wants to be president or nothing else. At some point they all have to compromise if truly their goal is to beat the current government. I'm not saying Obi is a saint, but he'll be a good administrator, and if he's to make headway he has to learn to compromise. Else, he better forget politics.

On the issue of Kwankwaso, we are both saying the same thing. Head or Tail, Kwankwaso is the biggest winner in all of these.

If some kind of miracle happens and they win, he'll be the vice president to take over from Obi.

Then also, if Tinubu wins, he'll have gained southern acceptance through Obi, and no Northern politician bar Atiku will be as formidable as him. Since Atiku is no longer contesting post-2027 the cake is Kwankwaso's to take.

this is what we keep saying, he is the spoiler but his people will turn around and claim atiku is spoiler

How far have the non criminal structure helped him with presidency, he is not going anywhere but won't allow those who will to go

How will he possibly negotiate positions and concession when he would need to insert these same coalition into his govt.

Politics is a dirty game, but men like Dem yaradua and gej placed this politics and the people still enjoyed

We just need a liberal person that can have chop and let masses also chop, this whole messiah thing of holy pass only places the worst in power
Re: Peter Obi Leaves ADC For NDC by tunapawizzy: 1:20pm On May 03

That places kwankwaso as another atiku in ndc cos he has northern delegates and a good unifier in southern politics
Kwankwaso and obi are both obasanjo boys, obi and kwankwaso will rule long interchangeable

people wey no understand the rudiments of politics and governance think defection of govs have a say in Nigeria presidential elections. Obi was able to defeat Tinubu in LAGOS and Abuja when some Nigerians still wanted Tinubu, I wonder what will happen now after his very poor performance in govt. People still do not understand that fish and meat is now a luxury.
